I belong to several lists and some use top posting, some use bottom posting, and some don't seem to
care.
However, I try to be congenial and use the preferred posting for that particular list. Here I do
bottom posting. Others top.
I use Thunderbird eMail client. With Thunderbird, I can set each of my eMail addresses for top or
bottom. I set this one for the bottom so it's there automatically when "replying".
I personally believe that I should keep peace whenever possible. Here? I bottom post for the sake
of keeping peace.
Actually, I used to top post only.... But now I'm getting to like bottom posting MAINLY because I
like having the previous post just above so I can refer to it if necessary. If I was top posting, I
wouldn't have that.
With all due respect to top posters et al,
Joseph
